Oh no, I wasn't trying to correct you. I was just adding the bit about how people in calculus define it, since it's a fact I myself didn't know relatively recently.
I don't like using appeals to authority, but this isn't a theory I came up with, so I'll give credit where it's due. This video probably explains it better than I could: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMTD1Y3LHcE.
Most of the proofs that 0.999... are equal to 1 are fallacious since you first have to prove that 0.999... actually exists and that it's a number that can be multiplied. In calculus, people often define 0.9999... as shorthand for "the number that this value approaches, if it exists." So that's how they get it equal to 1, even though they're just defining it to be what they want.
Don't have voting qualifications yet, but CON sounds good here. They establish definitions early on, and by the end, PRO is basically just agreeing with them.
Exactly. Depending on how you define "peaceful," a lot of Muslims wouldn't classify Islam as such. Besides, I think most of them would support fighting defensive wars at the very least.
Please vote if you have time!
I think this one's for you
Nah, we're cool. I enjoy a good debate that goes off the rails.
You're a real thorn in my side, but take it as a compliment.
Only a few days left to vote.
Good luck to you, sir.

Who's pro and who's con?
Please vote!
Vote if you can!
Hope to see more from you!
Please vote if you can!
Does CON argue it should be illegal in all cases or just most?
Please vote if you have time! Voting period is only one week.

It's unfortunate that things turned out this way. If you want, we can debate something else after this is over.
Will probably vote on this
With the Bible as the only source, this seems like an easy win for Pro. It's literally one of the main tenets of Christianity.
